RE: Morning Run: Need more sleep
Well done for getting up so early after the jam. I love listening to Rod and Richard when they get chatting. They've got some funny stories to tell. It's interesting that Rod says he'd hate to be doing

I'm glad you're enjoying it. I've been picking my guitar back up a bit this Summer.

That is a hard one there Steve. Well done though. I don't think I'd have enough patience for those bits in the middle.

RE: VIBES WEB 3 MUSIC COMPETITION WEEK 7 - "MY FEARS" AN ORIGINAL SONG.
Incredible. What a beautiful song. I love the lyrics, the chord sequence, your voice, your playing. You say you're 'not perfect', but your performance was. Amazing.

RE: Fooling around for Monday Drum Day, plus big gig news
I agree with you Steve. We could also do with some proper recordings and a facebook page for people to look at.

RE: Building a virtual drum kit
Ah thanks for the information. The kit you have is a nice compact size. Having a second mounted tom might be useful for variety in fills and wouldn't take up extra floor space and a cowbell is quite useful

RE: Building a virtual drum kit
That looks like a fun app and could be quite useful for anyone who has to plan a kit that fits in to a specific space. I don't know who Terry Bozio is but frankly he just has too many drums and cymbals.

RE: Adding to my drum kit
It's a really good little kit Steve. Ideal for the folk band sound. I thought you played very sensitively and the balance was good. The high hat in particular sounds great because it's got all those lovely

RE: Monday Drum Day: Swinging it
Yeah I agree because you've been so involved with Jazz the last few years, it should be easier for you to pick up the feel for it than the average learner. Love playing a proper kit... but haven't had

Jazz is blooming hard on the drums. There's a lot of cymbal work and swooshing the brushes around on the snare...bit like rubbing your belly and patting your head.

Hi Steve, wow you're very dedicated...I couldn't just sit there and do that, it'd drive me insane. I do have just a little bit of advice..I really hope you don't mind. To avoid possible RSI in your wrists,

They may well be..I've never used any so I can't advise.

That is so...they just tickle electronic drums rather than making a noise. 😀

RE: Monday Drum Day: Jamming
I've played a full kit against a piano accompaniment..the piano wasn't amplified...so yeah it can be done, but you have to be able to play with a very light touch and brushes are very useful for that.

There's a kind of hybrid stick you can get which is quieter isn't there? I've never used them myself but they look a bit like a bunch of straight twigs tied together.

RE: Monday Drum Day: Jamming
I reckon you'll love them. They are so much more responsive than any electric kit. It's now 9 years since I played on a real kit. I really miss the power of them. I hope you do get to play yours at full
